The   from comes with everything you need to add cyclonic efficiency to wet/dry vacuums with 2½" hose cuffs. Its conical anti-static cyclone, integrated into the 5-gallon waste container’s lid, has a vortex design that improves separation performance by preventing back draft into the cyclone. That enables it to pre-separate 99 percent of dust and debris  (item 66062; $24.99). The L-shaped fence on the bottom of the 6" x 6" jig registers against the edges of a square corner, and it features inch marks and four adjustable aluminum stops for precise positioning. The jig is made of heat-tolerant plastic with rubber overmolds to limit heat transfer. A rubber coating on the bottom of the jig minimizes shifting during use. Screw holes also enable it to be mounted to a surface, when holding by hand isn’t feasible. A hang hole enables the jig to be hung up between uses. Rockler also includes an aluminum branding iron stand with a silicone sleeve for protection against heat transfer. It attaches to the guide for convenient storage. Personalized electric branding irons, which Rockler also offers, are sold separately.
